Q. Can I take LMV Syrup and fexofenadine together?
Sometimes the doctor may advise you to take two different antihistamines together if you are being treated for a severe itchy rash. If you are taking LMV Syrup during the daytime, your doctor may prescribe another antihistamine for the night, which causes sleepiness, especially if the itch makes it difficult for you to sleep.

LMV Syrup is safe if used as prescribed by your doctor. Moreover, it is unlikely to harm you if you take it for a long time. But, it is best to take LMV Syrup for only as long as you need it.
Q. For how long should I continue LMV Syrup?
The duration for which the medicine needs to be taken depends on the problem being treated. For instance, if you are taking it for an insect bite, you may need it for a day or two. If you are taking it to prevent symptoms of chronic allergic rhinitis (inflammation of the nose) or chronic urticaria, you may need to take LMV Syrup for a longer time.
